Paradise Negroni, 0.5L 22% Background to the Paradise Negroni: Pre-filled cocktails have a rather dubious reputation in many parts of the bar scene. The brightly colored, squeaky-sweet cream monsters from the supermarket have certainly made a decisive contribution to this. But fortunately there are also praiseworthy exceptions that show that with very good spirits and the right specialist knowledge, wonderful ready-to-drink cocktails can be created. The Finnish family company Lignell & Piispanen, known for its fruity liqueurs, has now set itself the goal of developing historical cocktail classics as a ready-made, quick-to-prepare drink for convivial evenings with the new Paradise range. This allows the host to concentrate fully on conversations with his guests and does not have to disappear into the kitchen for long periods of time. Furthermore, a ready-filled cocktail saves space on the shelf and is easy on the wallet. The concept only works, of course, if high-quality base spirits and fresh ingredients are used in the production and an authentic, true-to-the-original taste is guaranteed. This is where Lignell & Piispanen come into play. Their Paradise range, consisting of the Paradise Negroni, the Paradise Sazerac and the Paradise Vesper, is able to set itself apart from the competition and scores with a great aroma and finely balanced taste that meets the highest demands. Serving suggestion for the Paradise Negroni: We start with the Paradise Negroni, a modern, slightly fruity reinterpretation of the popular classic cocktail Negroni. The strong, spicy, bitter basic character is expanded and rounded off by the use of highly aromatic wild cranberries from the Arctic. Only a few small steps stand in the way of enjoyment. The Paradise Negroni is simply stirred on ice or poured directly into a tumbler filled with ice cubes. It is also possible to pre-chill the Paradise Negroni in the freezer. Finally, simply squeeze an orange peel over the drink and serve. With a little preparation, serving can be made even quicker. For example, it is possible to fill the tumblers with ice cubes in advance and then store them in the freezer. The oranges can also be peeled 1-2 hours before use without losing any of their aroma. Tasting the Paradise Negroni: The Paradise Negroni initially shows a complex mixture of delicate fruitiness and spicy, herbal notes. In addition to juniper berries, wormwood and angelica, gingerbread spice, ginger and cloves come to the fore. The cranberries used also provide a fresh character and a harmonious rounding of the taste, which should appeal especially to those who find the classic Negroni too bitter and heavy. Nevertheless, the Paradise Negroni is a full-bodied, full-bodied drink with plenty of power and volume. The classic characteristics are complemented by fruity notes. The harmonious balance and the perfect interplay of the individual flavors are remarkable. This makes the Paradise Negroni a successful alternative and is considered a benchmark for ready-to-use cocktails.

Paradise Vesper 0.5L 22% The family business Lignell & Piispanen: The Lignell & Piispanen is a family-run, traditional company from Finland that is best known for its interpretation of classic Scandinavian drinks. The company, founded in 1852, always focuses on regional ingredients and various arctic berries. In addition to the mulled wine-like Glögi, various fruit liqueurs and vodka, the Paradise series is the next ambitious project that is set to influence the cocktail world. With a total of three different, ready-to-serve cocktails, Lignell & Piispanen wants to permanently change the bad image of supermarket premixes and show that "ready-to-use" cocktails can be high quality and taste outstanding. For this purpose, three different classic cocktails were taken and bottled ready-made. Alongside the Paradise Negroni and the Paradise Sazerac, the Paradise Vesper is an extremely successful interpretation of the historical model. The history of the Vesper cocktail: There are many myths and legends surrounding the origins of numerous cocktails. This does not apply to the Vesper cocktail. This can be undoubtedly attributed to the British author Ian Fleming. In his 1953 novel Casino Royale, the secret agent and protagonist James Bond orders this cocktail, which is based on the classic Martini. The recipe in the book consists of three parts gin, one part vodka and half a part Kina Lillet, a tart aperitif made from wine and fruit liqueurs. Shaken vigorously on ice, the Vesper forms the basis for the later phrase: "shaken, not stirred", which Bond likes to say now and again. The name in turn goes back to the agent Vesper Lynd, with whom Bond falls in love over the course of the novel. Serving suggestion and tasting of the Paradise Vesper: The Paradise Vesper comes to your home ready to drink. You just need to ensure it is properly cooled. Either store the Paradise Vesper in the freezer or mix it with ice cubes shortly before serving. Strained into a cocktail glass and decorated with a long lemon peel, nothing stands in the way of relaxed drinking pleasure. The fruity-floral notes immediately emerge. The mixture of citrus, lavender, wormwood and other herbs is extremely elegant and fine. The alcohol content of 22% forms a strong base and transports all the aromas in a harmonious way. The Paradise Vesper never lacks the tart, spicy basic character of the original. Overall, the Paradise Vesper is a great alternative to "mixing it yourself" and combines the time savings of a ready-to-serve cocktail with the highly complex aroma and full-bodied taste of a classic drink.
